Bruce Peninsula National Park
This small piece of land at the tip of the Bruce Peninsula has an unusually rich diversity of habitats. From the limestone cliffs of the Niagara Escarpment to flat, dry rock alvars, to rare fern habitats. One of the area’s claims to fame is the 43 species of orchids naturally found here. Climb the 20m (65') tower for a bird's-eye view of the Bruce! Chill out in the high-definition theatre, for a virtual adventure to the best spots in the park! Experience the exhibit gallery, with everything from a full-size lighthouse, flowerpot and cliff to black bear, rattlesnake and shipwreck exhibits. Drop in on a special demo by a park naturalist. Shop for national park souvenirs in the gift shop. Hike the world-famous Bruce Trail, which runs right past the visitor centre, to scenic coves on Georgian Bay.
Minimum Time Required: 3 hour guided hike to the “Grotto”
